Acetabular retractors have been implicated in damage to the femoral
and obturator nerves during total hip replacement. The aim of this
study was to determine the anatomical relationship between retractor
placement and these nerves. A posterior approach to the hip was carried out in six fresh
cadaveric half pelves. Large Hohmann acetabular retractors were
placed anteriorly, over the acetabular lip, and inferiorly, and
their relationship to the femoral and obturator nerves was examined.Objectives
